On college campuses, female students continue to outnumber male students. Films like Knocked Up and television shows like Last Man Standing suggest that being a man in America is ever more difficult. Real American men, so the narrative goes, are disappearing. David Magill (Longwood University) explores the myths and realities of the male crisis.
Also featured: As an English teacher in Atlanta, Joseph Jones (Radford University) recognized the damaging effects of homophobia among students in his classroom. He now wants to help other teachers address bullying. He’s just written a new book called Making Safe Places Unsafe: A Discussion of Homophobia with Teachers.

I would truly love to know the name and performer of the song played at the end of your show of 2/18/12
Hello Ralph,
I believe the song you are interested is “The Man in Me”. It is a cover of a Bob Dylan song performed by the acapella group
The Persuasions on their CD “Street Corner Symphony”. Glad you enjoyed the music and thanks for listening to With Good Reason.
